Using r. 1.129 (IDE-only machine): most things work ok now for me (mounting msdos floppy also doesn't panic), except: * I can't properly disklabel/newfs a floppy. What I'm doing is: disklabel -rw /dev/rfd0 fd1440 (spits some error about ioctl ???LABEL) newfs /dev/rfd0a (spits some error about write-only fs [/dev ???]) * this was done by mistake, but I think this shouldn't be possible: I mounted DEVFS on /dev manually several times, and all the entries were showing up when I did 'mount', i.e.: /dev/wd0s1a on / (local, writes: sync 1217 async 11307)) devfs on dummy_mount (local) devfs on /dev (local, noexec, read-only) /dev/wd0s1f on /usr (local, noatime, writes: sync 5 async 1137)) /dev/wd0s1e on /var (local, writes: sync 1429 async 11084)) procfs on /proc (local) devfs on /dev (local) devfs on /dev (local) devfs on /dev (local) Of course, when I did umount it said 'umount: /dev: Device busy'.
